MAPPING GENDERED DISINFORMATION IN THE WESTERN BALKANS – NORTH MACEDONIA

May 20, 2025

We, Reporting Diversity Network Team, analyzed over 80 cases of gender disinformation from various aspects—including the intended message, related themes and narratives, level of influence, and sources of origin—to gain a deeper understanding of this issue in North Macedonia.


This report goes beyond just mapping the flow of gender disinformation and associated propaganda, it is a critical tool for understanding, analyzing, and addressing the broader disinformation ecosystem. Carried out in synergy with in-depth research, analytical work, fact-checking, and investigative reporting, all aimed at actively countering misogynistic narratives and bolstering societal resilience against efforts to undermine gender equality, women’s rights, LGBTQI+ rights, and ultimately, human rights.
